BAGGAGE - Use on board of articles for the comfort of minors

 

We inform about the acceptance in cabin of certain elements of comfort for minor passengers. The following items may be transported in the aircraft cabin:

  • Bedbox
  • Flyaway
  • Inflatable cushions

We detail the specifications of each one below:

Bedbox: these are small and light luggage for children to use. When installing them in front of the seat they allow to create a bed allowing a better experience on board. This element goes with a strap to anchor the seat retaining bar so that it does not come loose. Its upper surface is at the level of the seat, forming a bed for the child.

Flyaway: This article, when inflated, takes the form of a mattress with a support structure at one end. This structure is in contact with the floor, while the mattress rests on the seat as a bed for the child.

Inflatable cushions: these are cushions that inflate to take the shape of a cube, occupying the space in front of the seat. The upper surface is at the level of the seat, forming a bed for the child.

When giving information about Bedbox, Inflatable cushions or Flyaway, you should consider:

  • Flight materials: these items can be used in flight materials A319, A320, A321, A350, B767, B777 and B787 without cabin restriction (in the Premium Business cabin it will not be necessary to use them but they can be transported).
  • Baggage: These items are part of the allowed baggage allowance, so they must comply with size, weight and piece restrictions.
  • Assignment of seats: Passengers who proactively inform they are carrying one of these elements must be informed that can only be used in window seats or central row central seats, so as not to block the passage of other passengers traveling in the same row. In addition, it is required at least 1 adult per seat block. When the passenger has not reserved the appropriate seat, the flight crew will try to relocate it, and if not possible, the device can not be used on board.
  • Reservations: The acceptance of these devices has no cost or associated SSR. However, if the passenger anticipates traveling with any of these elements, must be considered the Seat conditions for seat selection, along with leaving an SSR CKIN in the reservation indicating the type of device. Example: SSR CKIN PSGR SMITH / LUCAS CARRYING A BEDBOX
  • Security: They can not be installed during taxiing, takeoff and landing.
